Unanswered: Need help identifying this wheel

I took two of these wheels off a GT I parted out. I would like to find two more, but I do not know who made these wheels and could sure use some help identifying them. They are 13" x 6" and the only marking I can find is the number 01300 cast into one of the spokes on the back.

Mystery Wheels

Those look like Chevrolet Monza/Vega wheels, if they are they are 4 on 4" bolt pattren and not 4 on 100mm and do not fit right without some alteration.

I know Ron might dis-agree with me, but, I seem to remember that, at least the fastback or hatchback version, of the Chevy Monza, had these as optional wheels.

These wheels bolt right up to the GT hub, and they do not appear to be modified in any way, so I assume they are 4 x 100mm.

That would be the monza 2+2 Gene. I don't know enuff about that body style to comment on those wheels. All I really know about mine is, it's almost box stock as it came from the factory, for now.
